NEW YORK - (Business Wire) Revlon, Inc. (NYSE: REV) announced today that its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, Revlon Consumer Products Corporation ("RCPC"), intends to offer $330 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2015 (the "notes"), subject to market and other customary conditions. It is expected that the notes will be guaranteed by Revlon, Inc. and RCPC's domestic subsidiaries, which also currently guarantee RCPC's bank term loan agreement and bank revolver agreement, and that the notes and the related guarantees will be secured, subject to certain exceptions, by liens on the same collateral that secures RCPC's bank term loan agreement on a second priority basis and liens on the same collateral that currently secures RCPC's bank revolver agreement on a third-priority basis, subject to certain exceptions. RCPC intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with other cash, to: (i) pay the total tender offer consideration in connection with RCPC’s previously-announced cash tender offer to purchase any and all of the $340.5 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of its 9½% Senior Notes due April 2011 (the "9½% Senior Notes"); and (ii) pay the applicable premium and accrued interest, along with related fees and expenses, on any 9½% Senior Notes that may be subsequently redeemed by RCPC following the tender offer.
The notes and the related guarantees will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The notes and the related guarantees will not be registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities mentioned in this press release in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
